The convenience of the iPod is so addictive that it even finds its way into the lives of serious audiophiles. But the sound of most iPod docks leaves much to be desired. After studying the iPod's specs, we found something everyone else seems to have missed: the capability for balanced output, the same interface technology used in professional recording studios.

We incorporated this balanced audio technology into the Krell Interface Dock, better known as the KID. The KID delivers true high-end sound quality from an iPod, with no extra effort on your part: Simply insert your iPod and hit play on the iPod or on the KID's remote control. You may think you're hearing a high-end CD player, but no - you're hearing the same little device you play when you're out on a jog.
